If the tank isn't venting properly, it will create a vacuum, cutting off fuel flow.
i've gotten my old '83 cm upto about 100(km/h) (63 mp/h) on a flat, but whoever owned it before me put a damn 14/38 setup on it, tomorrow i fix it somewhat by getting a 30T rear sprocket
A Rebel that can pop wheelies!
The original sprocket sizes are 14 teeth up front, and 33 on the rear.

110 on a Rebel 250??? Must have been an extremely long, steep, downhill.
That's right up there with the guy who said he took 90 degree turns at 60+ mph.

what was the radius of the turn tho? maybe turbo-roundabout

I'm not sure what you mean, but I always thought 90 degrees was always the same, unless the rider is in a space/time continuum. I was thinking of the former forum member, whose username I don't recall, who claimed astronomical gas mileage and fantastic speeds through higher gearing. He also claimed to make sharp turns at unbelievable speeds. He managed to get banned from two Rebel forums, one of which no longer exists.
Yup, the guy who did the physically impossible.
